Ruth was a very beautiful lass so most of my friends were charmed by her beauty. I never believed that such a beauty would exist on this Earth but I said that I saw her with my own eyes. We were of the same age and height. She was frank, understanding and caring. I told Chungpu my feelings for her and just as I had trusted him,he understood me and jokingly said,"Atlast your time has come huh? You're earlier than I've expected. You may be the first to have a girl among us but be warned; you may not be the first to get married, I may overtake you". Then he said, "Don't worry my bro, we're always here for you. Don't be too much tensed. Instead, focus infocus in your studies. Remember ,if you are successful in life, she will definitely be yours. So picture in your mind the day you become someone and the day you'll marry her, then work very hard to make sure it comes true." His words were very encouraging and convincing, the right advice I needed at that time. He lightened the burden in my heart.
